Next project plans have been finalized!

Sup guys,

Progress has been a little slow lately...


In any case, I've been slowly planning my next project--it's going to be a beefy one and I want it done right! For those that don't know, I'm planning to build my first 100% homemade blaster: a RainbowPump. Ryan's version uses a full-length K26, but only utilizes 6'' of compression. Quertyman's version gets near-full compression with 7'' of draw, but unfortunately I already bought the parts for Ryan's version before he even wrote it up.

I have decided to take the middle ground: achieve the same near-full compression as quertyman, but use Ryan's internal coupler design and the original 6'' of draw spec. Some of you may be frowning at this, but I'm not going to use a full-length K26! After cutting down the spring and killing some dead space from the original design, the blaster will be a few inches shorter. It should theoretically shoot harder than a normal RBP! Stay tuned for the:

Shortened RainbowPump

I promise I'll get started soon.....after a couple more missions.

Longshot shotgun grip: The Final Chapter!

Sup guys and girlfriend,

I can't believe I'm saying this, but it's finally time to wrap up the Longshot once and for all. It has been a tale of heartbreak, sacrifice, and persistence. At last it is time to move on to bigger and better things. After this mod, I can rest knowing that I've made this Longshot everything it could ever be. Join me in the final chapter in the Saga of the Yellow Monster.

Where we left off...
